Features: Salvador Dalí, the master of Spanish "Surrealism," uses contradictions, dislocations, and absurd imagery to magically reveal the mysterious world of humanity. He arranges many common objects and items in a reversed space-time scene, leading people into a subconscious, supernatural, and dreamlike visual world. Dalí's unique and eccentric personality enables him to create many unexpected yet delightful works, laying the foundation for Surrealist art and opening the floodgates for visual artistic freedom for 20th-century artists.
